Sadly, it will always seem incomplete without the updated Monkian and Jackalman figures. Or Berbils. I really thought the show had some legs if it could win over an old timer like me.

as a whole I really liked the series, and that's saying something as a card carrying Thundercats hater. I think the biggest issues this series had was they tried to go the Avatar route but ended up missing the brilliance of that series - filler episodes were too 'filler' in thundercats where as in avatar everything mattered and felt neccessary (maybe one of two eps missed that mark) but other than that as a whole I did like the series.

I'm actually thinking about unloading the tower of omens. I'll keep the clear Tygra and the other little stuff that it comes with. But I'm not seeing any good reason to keep the actual playset. I might bundle that together with a few different figures just to raise some cash.

you might as well keep it. you might be able to get $5. I got mine at a Tuesday Morning I think, for like $12. and others have reported seeing them for way less.

Just curious was there any Thundercats represented at Power-Con. I see all this news on Masters and Turtles but nothing mentioned about Cats. It's a real shame that there we never got the full team in the Classics treatment.

I'm still so angry at Cartoon Network and Bandai for the way the relaunch was handled. It had the potential of becoming something huge.

On the positive side, I never see the Armor of Omens anywhere anymore. That was once a major liability to the line.
Looks like it might have half a chance of becoming a semi-desired collectible.

Then I guess I better go buy the 20 still hanging around my TRU.

TRU did though mark down the Mezco 18 in figures.

On a side note, my Meijer cut a bunch of new TC stuff in their isle just last week. I got a feeling that they found a bunch of cases in the back. I don't think though they'll be selling anytime soon. They still have them at full price. I saw a Claudis and considered buying him but I passed.

My TRU has Cheetara. Those are too big. I can't see picking them up. At one point they had Lion-O marked down to like $12 or something. I didn't even bother with him.

Claudus has been a pretty common sight at Five Below. They are running short now. Hard to say if more are coming. I paid like $20 for my first one. Ouch. Well, you never know. I never did find a Tygra so I'm glad I paid out for him.

Toys R Us really seems to be completely ok with sitting on stuff for ages. Mine still has rows, and rows, and rows of Iron Man 2 wave 1 figures and Thor stuff. And yes, I too saw a whole end cap of Thudertanks the other day.

I got Claudus and metal arms Panthro at a discount chain called Gabriel Bros right before Christmas for $2.99. I'd already sold my other figs, but grabbed those 2 because it was the only time I'd seen them.

That's a sweet deal. I feel like the line doesn't get as much credit as it should. The figures are generally very accurate to the show and were much better than most of what has been coming out lately. They cost was the same as what is being charged now for figures with 5 pts. of articulation.

I have to second that; they had decent articulation and were a good ways above the 1970's figures a lot of the properties have been giving us lately. And there was actually a pretty good scale in place, something Bandai isn't necessarily known for.

I think the only real complaints people had were the black pegs and the plastic that was used. Yes there was some bad paint applications on individual items (not characters) but that happens all the time. I also think people were comparing the Classics to MOTUC and TMNTC which was understandable but still.

I know many didn't like the designs of the characters but that wasn't the fault of Bandai.

My Ollie's got in tons of Thundertanks ($8). They also got the basic vehicles--although I did not see Tygus.
There were a lot of Towers -- and I do mean a lot, heh. They were loaded up with tons of all of these.
I didn't think to check if they had Storm Chargers mixed in. It doesn't matter because I already have everything.

They also had the Ghostbuster Mego dolls. I didn't see Winston but I probably missed him. I'm thinking he was probably there a few days ago.

My biggest gripe is the magnets.
That was just a stupid idea.

Wave 1 at Big Lots for $3. I grabbed an extra Panthro. I don't have a loose one.
